Texas DOT - Crash Reports and Records: There is no better place place than directly from the DOT for an official copy of your accident report. The Texas DOT is one of the (if not THE) most advanced State DOT’s in the United States. Where most other States in the US have no centralized data policy or standards for their accident reports, Texas has lead the way in centralizing and providing online access to its citizens.

While the increase in accidents that occurred from 2014 to 2015 may be due to the global collapse of oil prices during that period, the drop in accidents in 2016 and the rise in 2017 and 2018 are not directly influenced by the reduction or increase in the price of gasoline. The increase in accidents may be due to the increasing number of trucks that move on the 336 state-owned circular road and other highways in the city.
